Kangaroo is a 1982 platform video game developed and published by Sun Electronics for arcades. It was released in Japan in May 1982 and in North America by Atari, Inc. in June 1982. It is one of the first arcade games similar in style to Donkey Kong without being a direct clone. The player takes the role of a boxing glove-wearing mother kangaroo who is trying to rescue her joey from fruit-throwing monkeys. Jumping is integral to the game, but there is no jump button; instead, the player pushes up on the joystick—or up and diagonally—to leap. - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com

Test drive Afterplay » https://genxgrownup.com/afterplay This 2005 Excalibur Space Invaders Mini Arcade looked too cool to leave behind at a toy show — even if I wasn’t completely sure it worked. Turns out, it only partially works. So today I’m cleaning it up, testing it, and trying to figure out whether this little tabletop arcade can be rescued. It has the look, it has the charm, and it definitely has a problem. But can I bring this broken invader back to life? #retrogaming #handheld #vintage #genxgrownup - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Thrifted Invaders 02:35 Hardware Tour 03:43 Power On & Test 06:13 Cleaning 10:05 Reset Button 11:48 Shenanigans 12:44 Diminishing Returns 13:30 Exemplar 14:15 Re-Assembled 15:17 Attempted Play 16:55 Are You the One?

GravitreX is a physics simulation game that has you trying to land two ships on their respective platforms. Like the old classic Lunar Lander, but much more difficult and more heavily physics-based. And who wouldn’t want to play some super-charged Lunar Lander, right? Jon sure does! #GravitreX #LunarLander #GenXGrownUp Patreon » patreon.com/genxgrownup Merchandise » GenXGrownUp.com/merch […]

Jon has had his eye on this little Atari handheld emulator from Europe for some time. Finally, the price came down far enough to justify the cost to import it. What’s it like? How does it play? Is it worth the cost? Retro Handheld from UK » amzn.to/2He4KOl Flashback Portable » amzn.to/2HdVg5E #genxgrownup Subscribe » […]
